I just googled stadium baccarat. Sands casino in Bethlehem, PA has the largest stadium gaming in the country with 150 seats. This caters to the New York city Asian crowd. You can read about it here.

Set up looks weak.  If I wanted to play baccarat on PlayStation or my phone, I would just do it.  IMO, any setup with fixed chairs and stations for each player is pretty lame.  YOU HAVE TO GET DOWN AND DIRTY.  Last night we had three hottt tables going and a hottt player who was roving around working my position with me who just had to get up on me every bet.  Not going to happen in the stadium set up. 

Almost like this - I wish:




Which led me to this pic -haha:




And the advantage to the player with this is?  You can't really see what other players are doing.  A real stadium set up should maintain that tight packed element.  Same as old school/ current just add more players.

What are the min-max bets for this stadium baccarats, hey hey?

21 Aces

From that article:

LOSE:
'Because each player's bet is unaffected by other players, there is no worry about being intimidated by superstitious or more experienced players.'


SOME MINOR WIN:
'The biggest draw for some is the minimum bets, as low as $5. Sands currently offers no $5 blackjack tables and during the busiest times on Friday or Saturday nights, the $10 minimum tables sometimes go up to $20 or $25.'


THE REAL REASON:
'There's another reason why Sands could hit the jackpot with the new hybrids: taxes. Pennsylvania's tax on slot machines, at 54 percent, is among the highest in the nation. However, because table games require a casino to hire more workers — dealers, supervisors, pit bosses and finance people — to run them, the tax on table games is just 14 percent. The theory is that what is lost in tax revenue is gained in job creation.

The new hybrid games allow Sands to run the whole stadium with just a handful of dealers, but they're taxed at the table games rate of 14 percent.'


I casinos want to go this route then they will be left in the dust as players ditch their commute to play live on-line.  Fro most players that's 20-30 minutes +++ each way.  The whole FN point of going to a live casino is for the conditions as they stand.

If casinos want to increase their financials then they would capture more of this without being too hoity toity about it:




The #1 reason why casino numbers are down has nothing to do with them really.  It's the economy that drives gaming and everything else.

John,

  None in Florida that I'm aware of.

  I have played "stadium" baccarat in Asia and really enjoyed it.  Your own table to wager with, nobody spilling things on you, smoking, making stupid sounds, etc.    Just play your game, take the pay coupon and be done with it.

  I am NOT there to be entertained.  I can do without the social interaction.  Some of my best times at a table are when there are only one or two other players with me, usually at the other end as I like the #1 and #2 spots.

  AD (just my two cents on it)

Yeah massive in Asia and in some casinos in Australia for the $10 minimum bettors, fast paced game, 30 seconds to make a decision.  Have played it in Oz and Singapore, prone to make mistakes, wrong bet amount, want to bet but timed out, don't appreciate value of chips (money) cos' all you are doing is pressing buttons, easy to lose your rag, literally hated it.

A cat should be able to get his bets down in 30 second, hey hey.

I like the Rapid Baccarat as they call it here.  I think 30 seconds is plenty of time too, you just get into a rhythm and the time passes nicely.  No clowns trying to be smart with you and betting against you or stuff like that.  You can play your game against the house rather than the other players on the table.  And it's cheap.  And when you want to you can make friends with the other players too and socialize and have a drink.  No pressure to play.
The main skills I use to beat the casino are ignorance and confidence, it amazingly works just like Mark Twain said it would.

Show me a happy loser and I'll show you a loser!

Mars is the God of War btw, and I'm at war with the casino.

So for everyone that likes.  Why don't you just play on-line with a reputable casino with live dealing over the net?

I played at lighting pace for a series last night and made money, but didn't like it.

People have mentioned a few names on this board if you search.  Whatever the setup, it sounds like you view the dealing table and dealer dealing a live shoe/ cards.  I didn't really pay attention because there are so many good casinos in my area and I just go to one all of the time.
